The 17th Annual East/West Showdown is in the books! Bill & Lane thank you for all the kind comments about how much you enjoyed this year's program. You voted, and by now five lucky listeners have been notified that they are winners in this year's drawing.

The final outcome was a draw -- six rounds for the East Coast, and six rounds for the West Coast. The closest contest came in Round 2, where the Pyramids' "Penetration" narrowly edged The Tams' "What Kind of Fool (Do You Think I Am)". The most lopsided match was Round 12, where the Intruders' version of "Together" gathered nearly four times as many votes as Tierra's rendition of the same tune.

Our thanks to everyone who listened and voted. Be sure to check back next summer to see what Lane & Bill will have in store for the 18th edition of the East/West Showdown.

COLLECTING AIRCHECKS - A HOBBY OF RADIO NOSTALGIAWhat is a Aircheck? It is simply a recording of a radio broadcast. Usually collected by Radio fans. Come check out our webpage on collecting Airchecks.

In
the mid 1960s it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to
Rock and Roll in the UK. The BBC actually ran only a few hours a
weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet. At night during
the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there
fill, that broadcast rock and pop around the clock. To fill this
void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio
aboard refitted radio ships. And anchor themselves just off into
International waters off the English coast. Radio Caroline (named after
Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time) and Radio
London being the most famous. Rock-it Radio has a website
dedicated to their ventures and also have actual radio broadcasts
available of these offshore pirates. We invite you to check them out
our webpage at:http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html

FINDING ROCK-IT RADIO ON THE 'TUNE IN RADIO' CELL PHONE APP.We have had a few requests from listeners that they couldn't find us on the popular 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones.

Just go to the Rock-it Radio DJ page and eachDJ has there e mail link underneath each bio.You can find it at: http://www.rockitradio.net/dj.html

In
the mid 1960s it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to
Rock and Roll in the UK. The BBC actually ran only a few hours a
weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet. At night during
the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there
fill, that broadcast rock and pop around the clock. To fill this
void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio
aboard refitted radio ships. And anchor themselves just off into
International waters off the English coast. Radio Caroline (named after
Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time) and Radio
London being the most famous. Rock-it Radio has a website
dedicated to their ventures and also have actual radio broadcasts
available of these offshore pirates. We invite you to check them out
our webpage at:http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html
